This is only needed if your login name as known by ssh isn't your user name on
the server.

That's exactly what I mean ! More precisely, run something like
ssh -X -l user server icewm
(in fact there is a trick I don't remember, but doing that won't work, you have
to set an environment variable, or ssh won't know your display right).
